Always the tastiest West Indian food. Goat curry, cows foot, oxtail stew ...

The best food and very friendly atmosphere with excellent customer service. Food served fast and with good quantity. Curry goat and red velvet cake are must try items. Definitely will go again and will highly recommend them.

One of best places for Jerk Chicken, I especially like that I can ask them for extra sauce. Some other more expensive places give you dry Jerk chicken with no flavor but this is the best in town!

Decent shop with load of variety or foods, it's rare to have some others though only because not alot of people buy them, but definitely recommended, fairly decent prices too

The best Carribean food by far! I have eaten from here many times and never ever been disappointed. Everything from jerk chicken to escovitch to oxtail is cooked with expertise and love. I have to say I am a fan of this place to the point that I recommend it to just about everyone I know. Soups are on point, fish is on point, I adore their oxtail and butter beans and curry goat - my favourites. Lovely dumplings and stewed fish. Hard food is cooked just right....I really cannot say a bad word about this place. They deserve a lot of praise!

I would give it a 10 out of 5 if I could the food and service was that good. Authentic Caribbean food and typically West Indian hospitality! The best we have had outside the Caribbean itself. A taste of the Caribbean in the UK. You will not be disappointed.

Me and the wife love Calabash. Staff are really nice food is even better but the thing is you got to get it when they make it fresh. we found about 4pm was good but we usually end up eating here towards closing time as we setimes pop in after work when a lot of stuff has run out. this place closes early but worth a visit if you have a day off and like fresh Jamaican cuisine. decor is OK chilli sauce is hot-ish but that's subjective from person to person and I can have hot chilli sauce. very well priced and halal

Excellent food. Very homely. My personal favourite is the brown chicken stew.
Wish they did smaller portions for ladies. I cannot manage such huge portions for lunch.
Also considering the local demographics it would be better business to serve halal food.
